In this multidisciplinary installation, Lisa Beth Robinson explores interconnectedness and vanishings, particularly in relation to the environment. Her work is propelled by the hidden lines she sees sewing the universe together. Sometimes close, sometimes loose, there are parallels and commonalities to be found among these lines. By bringing them to light, she weaves a space where viewers can see themselves as part of a larger whole, finding meaning, connection, and agency over life’s outcomes.
Robinson is a professor at the School of Art and Design at East Carolina University. She is the proprietor of Somnambulist Tango Press, where she makes books, broadsides, fine art, installations, and curates exhibitions. She is a member of the Catching a Wave collective, a group of interdisciplinary researchers from universities in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands who combine expertise in the environmental and social sciences with mixed media, fine art, and poetry. Her research presents Colony Collapse Disorder as a metaphor for global sociopolitical acts.
Her work has been exhibited across the country and is part of the collections of the New York Public Library, the University of Chicago, Brown University, Emory University, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
